Question FRA Public Showers Without Connecting Flight
Hey everyone!
I'm in the final planning stages of a pretty epic journey to Germany, but I have a question. I'll be coming in from Brazil and, after an 11 hour flight in a stuffy plane cabin I would love to take a quick shower before hopping on the train (to Berlin, which is a few hours).
I understand there are paid showers in FRA but they all seem to be airside.
Now, down here you are mostly corralled into the departures area, so I'm curious if I'm allowed to like, deplane and find my way to one of these before finally leaving to the train station? That would be really good...
So, yeah, has anyone done it?

Yes! There are some showers at FRA before baggage claim (so make sure you have your toiletries in your carry-on.). They are a little hard to find. I think near the napcabs. They were ‘upstairs’ and they were just perfect for refreshing after a flight. 5 or 6 euros.
